THECAUSE  I asked the author why I had to continually update their software and if they could do a software update program for their software to make the lives of their users much easier instead of having to download a new copy almost monthly, unstuff it and replace the old version.

It gets even more complex with the Emulator Enhancer add on which also needs regular updates.

This is the reply that I recieved when I voiced these concerns:

"I see no need for automatic updating, as such a feature provides a whole lot of dead traffic to my web site - which

has to be paid for - and is a relatively minor issue as anyone who looks at my web page can quickly see what the latest versions are."

-Richard Bannister March 13, 2006

So all we, the users, are to the author is traffic. This concept of visiting a website would be a decent idea in the ideal world but must be a complete headache for the modem users, the people that lack a constant internet connection and the people who actually want to play these emulators.

If the author desires so much traffic then maybe he can do so by providing some content on the webpage such as more information/help files/forums on the products he offers instead of forced updates.

I want to run an application that works, not a car that needs tuneups, upgrades add ons and trips to get serviced.

NED SCOTT  Wow, that has to be the most retarded reason for someone to give an app one star, because you're too lazy to manually update.

NAMAN  Note: Downloading ROMs is illegal in most cases. Do not ask for ROMs from the makers of emulators, and please do not rate it low because you can't find ROM sites.

STORMWATCH  I'VE CHANGED MY MIND! It was good before, but the new interface shell that Bannister uses on all his emulators now pipes the graphics through OpenGL, guess what happens if your graphics card is not powerful enough? Very heavy framerate drop. This app is UNUSABLE ON ANY G3 iMAC.

THE GOODGUY™  I Completely agree.. on my iMac G3 400 mhz i have used this before even reading this and even though im only using a 2 mb file usually less its super slow framerate.. laggy.. overall sucks for this computer..

STORMWATCH  Genesis Plus is the best Genesis emulator for MacOS; DGen is still a classic app, and Generator has a terrible framerate in any machine. It is not perfect, of course... some games won't run, some are glitchy to the point of being unplayable (Contra Hard Corps). But most games run flawlessly at excellent speed (100% on my G3/500).

IAN LUECK  Great Bannister emulator for Genesis. The new version, 1.1, adds much improved compatibility, so it's your best bet. Any game that is unplayable or glitchy in Generator (the other Sega emulator for Mac) will work in Genesis Plus.
